The air filter keeps dirt and dust out of the engine.

It is therefore very important to keep it clean and efficient to ensure the best functioning of the engine.

The filter is usually housed in a fairly bulky plastic container above the engine.

The compartment opens through metal clips. The porous paper cartridge cannot be cleaned but must be replaced.

The shape and type of the filter must be those specified by the manufacturer to ensure correct operation.

After removing the paper filter, carefully clean the plastic compartment before inserting the new filter.
